 Hi All,
 
I just upgraded a workstation server to a PDC server.
 I am using tbdsam as my user database.
 
 Question 1:  As a workgroup server, I created my groups

 Do I also need to tell Samba about a different database
 for groups?
I am not quite sure, I understand your question correctly:
probably you will want to use commands like
# net groupmap add ntgroup=Domain Admins unixgroup=wheel  type=d 
  rid=512
which would map the Windows group Domain Admins to the local UNIX
group wheel and so on. See the documentation on samba.org for more
details examples.

Greetings

Uli.

 Question 2: occasionally I get asked for the user
 with administrator's privileges.  Do I need to create
 a group called administrators (with an s) and
 populate it with root, todd (me), etc.?
 
 Many thanks,

Hi All,

  I just upgraded a workstation server to a PDC server.
I am using tbdsam as my user database.

Question 1:  As a workgroup server, I created my groups
in /etc/group (groupadd).  Is this still the case?
Do I also need to tell Samba about a different database
